CABIN FEVER

These are are series of small landscapes painted from memories of locations on the edge of the land. Remote hillsides, craggy peninsulas and small islands with small huts or cabins being the only evidence of human intervention. ​They represent one of the most basic permanent shelters, the first stage in putting down roots in a place.

This isn’t a form of nomadic accommodation that can be put up and taken down the next morning or that degrades back into nature, this is a structure that has been given some planning; foundations have been laid, modules have been bolted together, the roof is watertight, it has windows and heating.
